Tractor Transport

Hi All,

I'm looking to get a Massey 240 uplifted in North Wales and dropped off in Glasgow.
Any suggestions for getting it moved at reasonable cost? I've had a couple of quotes, but the cost is prohibitive so far.

Re: Tractor Transport

I was of corse joking, but many years ago my neighbour went to Dagenham and drove an old paraffin Fordson major home to save the delivery. He had to buy a new set of tyres,

On this side of the pond, my father used to tell a story from before WWII about walking a draft horse about 30 miles - leading it until his feet got sore then riding until something else got sore - then trying to decide which was the least sore.

Thanks.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I have arrangements in place now, but your info will no doubt come in handy for future transactions. One of my mates suggested driving it up and camping along the way. I might have considered that, had the brakes not been shot. Who knows we may have invented a new form of travel holiday here. Sort of narrow boating for the roads.
